# Quill – Deskjet 500

This is a follow up on printing with the DESKJET 500 printer from the last issue of IQLR. This time we are dealing with printing of QUILL (QLWP) documents. This is accomplished by using INSTALL _BAS to create a PRINTER dat file for the DESKJET 500 printer. All of the features of this printer will be available for printing QUILL docs. The following assumes that all mode switches on the printer are down.
